Real simple. Here's the deal...
The best dollar for dollar upgrade you can do for a Pantera is the Porterfield brake upgrade.
Order the Porterfield RS4 pads and the SS flex lines and your're good to go for a few hundred bucks. I did this on my last car and I could lock up the oversized Michelins at will.
No need to spend thousands for decent braking.
